LOL Bruins haven't developed any talent since Lucic Krejci and Marchand and everyone hates 2
of them! We'll see how it goes, big game tonight.
we were at Disney maybe 4 or 5 years ago and the 4 of us were sitting in a hot tub with 2 couples from Canada. got to chattin' em up, talked about hockey and the wife of one of the couples told me to keep an eye out for this kid Marchand. she was related to him somehow (cousin maybe??).

he reminds of a more annoying claude lemieux. but he does have the skills to back up the big mouth.

That's exactly who I described him as to my friend. I fuckin' hated Claude Lemieux but I guess I
would have liked him in a B's uni.

Funny story about Marchand, he was in a local casino a few days after the cup win. He was playing
blackjack at 3am in his bathrobe. He had been losing most of the night and decides to bet big on one hand
and win's. He get's a little rowdy and the pit boss asks him to leave. He stands up, drops his robe
and he's butt naked. Walks out screaming that he's untouchable! He can be such an ass hat... BUT
I LOVE HIS GAME!
 
Alright, what are the projections for tonight?
I call it takes Bishop half a period till he poops himself...
But Lightning still takes game 3.
Puts them back in the drivers seat for home ice.

That one was weak... but Lightning never gave up. Which is nice to see, didn't think they had much of a chance especially at the MAD HOUSE
the open netters they missed really hurt. and giving up the goal seconds after the hawks scored took the wind out of their sails.

on to game 4.

crawford should of had that first one.
I don't agree, Eddie O said that but Crawford is a butterfly style goalie. That shot would beat any
butterfly goalie. That's the point. They go down with the shot and you have to take a perfect shot
and crossbar down is a perfect shot. I am no Crawford fan either, he reminds me of Chris Osgood
with the Red Wings. Fantastic team with an ok goalie.

i agree with your point (and the great Eddie O!) but it seemed like he was already down b4 callahan took the shot. if he would have stayed upright, he could have blocked it i think. anyway, hossa hits that open net 9 of 10 times normally.

Yes, that's the way he plays. Really if that shot wasn't perfect it would
have glanced off his shoulder I think. Let's face it, the real problem goal
Crawford was the short side flub.
